Support Videos for Common Core
Support Videos for the Common Core in Mathematics
The Southeast Comprehensive
Center developed Common
Core State Standards (CCSS) videos to support states,
schools and teachers in the implementation of the new standards. The videos
were created in collaboration with the states in the Southeast Comprehensive
Center region based on their need for professional development support for the
implementation of the Common Core. Each video is an audiovisual resource that
focuses on one or more specific standards and usually includes
examples/illustrations geared toward enhancing understanding. The intent of
each content-focused video is to clarify the meaning of the individual standard
rather than to be a guide on how to teach each standard, although the examples
can be adapted for instructional use.

Math Packing the Common Core Replacing Math Contact Meetings
You may have heard that we have a new professional
development called Packing the Common Core and Essential Standards. I do not want to double task all of you as
many of you may be asked to be at our Math Contact Meeting as well as Packing,
so I am asking that we combine these two .
You are always welcome to email your questions to me or the
whole group. I am post updates and
responses to common questions as they arise to the Math Blog at http://www.onslowmath.blogspot.com/.
During each packing session we can have a “Hot Topics” time
when we can discuss some of the burning issues like we would at a Contact
Meeting. I apologize that this changes
dates for you, but I do hope that this will allow you to get as much
information as possible without pulling you in too many directions.
The dates and topics for Packing Tuesdays are:

Next HS Webinar
The next webinar in the NCSSM Common Core
State Standards Mathematics series presented by Maria Hernandez will be on Using
Functions to Build Models. In this session we will explore a hands-on
problem that is accessible to students in a variety of math courses from Math I
to Calculus. We will use a physical problem to explore creating a
mathematical model and then consider the domain and range of the model in the
real-world context. The task will engage students and help them make important
connections across mathematical subject areas.
This session will be Wednesday, February 27th from
3:15- 4:15 PM.

Webinars on High School Math
Please join us for the upcoming webinar
addressing the Common Core State Standards in mathematics. Maria
Hernandez, Mathematics Instructor at the NC School of Science and Mathematics,
will lead the session.
Nonlinear Data Analysis, Friday, January 18,
2013, 10:30 – 11:30 AM
In this session we will explore nonlinear
real-world data sets. Using residuals to assess our models, we can determine
when a nonlinear model is appropriate. We will then introduce the idea of using
inverse functions to linearize the data. To register and participate in
this webinar, go to http://tinyurl.com/nonlineardata

Opportunities for High School Math Teachers
Topic:
Strategies for Purposeful Problem Solving
Date: Wednesday, January 9, 2013
Time: 3:15 -4:15 pm
Date: Wednesday, January 9, 2013
Time: 3:15 -4:15 pm
Middle
school and high school math and science teachers are invited to join NCSSM
physics teacher Jeff Milbourne for a webinar January 9th.
Purposeful
problem-solving is critical to success in the 21st century, but what does
purposeful problem-solving entail? How can teachers help students become
purposeful problem-solvers? What is the role of technology and new media
in the problem-solving process?
This
session will explore these questions highlighting both education research and
classroom practices at the NC School of Science and Mathematics. While
the practices were originally designed for quantitative problem-solving in
physics, they are also applicable for conceptual problem-solving.
